What matters, what doesn't, and how to separate a trustworthy product from a glossy label.
Five things that matter
Products tested by independent labs you can verify. No lab results means no trust signal.
What is on the label should match what is in the bottle, without inflated actives or hidden fillers.
Heavy metals, pesticides, microbes, and adulterants all need a clean read before a product can earn confidence.
Price per bottle is noisy. Cost per effective serving tells the real story.
The brands worth buying usually share their testing, sourcing, and manufacturing standards without evasive copy.
